Yes, but maybe I wasn't enough specific there. I did not say they are "crucial", and they probably aren't. But at least I would say they have been important, it's hard to quantify, but my point is that they are not dead at all. Anarchist groups and individuals that have been around since way before the creation of the CDRs have been a relevant part in the organization of many local concentrations, rallies and road blocks, the very own CDRs (at least at the start, nowadays the situation is a bit more complicated and many have walked away from them), and many have played a big part in their coordination thanks to their previous experience and contacts. Especially at that local level, they have indeed been important. I mean, they have always been doing that, they just have had the chance to be even more active lately. This said, I'm not talking about the rallies from september 11's and those organized by ANC and Òmnium Cultural, which have been the most massive ones. Neither they are the sole organizers of every local action, but they have been actively participating in most. Most anarchists doing real work do not really talk about themselves as anarchists so much. There's a lot of people that pretend and talk a lot but in contrast do and know very little. That's common and it's easy to be confused by it. Most anarchists doing real work I have met are very wary of letting themselves be identified or put themselves in front of the cameras, both figuratively and literally.
